It would appear that the council has withdrawn it's funding pledge for Castleford's proposed stadium at GH!

I wonder if they have pledged an additional £2m now to NM? It would be a welcome boast to NM & mean that Sir Rodney & the Trust would have less grant funding to find but equally it is a shame if that turns out to be the case, as it clearly does signal the end of a new Cas stadium at GH.

Thanks for causing a brief heart attack IA!!! I thought for a moment this thread was a set back for Newmarket.

Yeah can you add CASTLEFORD somewhere!!!!

Where's BigAlf on a "Bad News Day??"

His PC is beeping.

If there was ever any hope left in any Castlefords fan regarding GH this has finally put the nail in the coffin. WR redevelopment is the long term way forward if any funds can be found

how will their be any funds when their all being channeled towards NM or behind closed doors their might be deciding on a ground share. it's been known for months what was happening so it was no shock,

Biased that you get the 2 million? Anything with a W in it stick together don't they?

Cas are still looking to redevelop WR. The development at the Nestle site is still earmarked to be somesort of enabling development, albeit for the existing stadium rather than the new one.



With respect to this news. I can only wonder where Trinity would be if the sham feasibility study was ever allowed to take place.

According to our friends the council should not be wasting money in this way.





Not long since they wanted some for GH and later still to upgrade WR, seems they are short of memory at best.

Of course you know that for a fact and can prove it if needed frank.

Stick to the nut jacks forum mate, I'm sure you'll get plenty of backing on there!
